#65630, "tinted windshield"


          

I just got my windshield tinted two days ago and it looks great. my normal tint around my windows are 10% and my windshield is 35%. It should help me out here in arizona once the summer comes along. The one great thing about this is it was done free of charge. It pays off to know people.

if you got the whole windshield done, dont get pulled over.....that is highly against the law and cops will go after you for it if they notice.

Paul: badass.

all my windows are at 10% I think or darker (including visor tint across the top of the windshield), but it crappy quality tint (whoever the first owner was did not want to pay for the good stuff apparently). At night time the headlights are all fuzzy and blurry, I want to get it all redone at a quality place before this summer.

let me know if you want it redone. to take off your old tint and put new one on will cost like $125. that's how much he did mine.

some cars come from the factory with tinted windsheilds like taurus's and 300zx's and many other cars but atleast my state its illegal to have the windsheild tnted lower then the top 6"

but that doesn't stop some people.

35% is kinda dark for the front thou?

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

That looks hot man. Good job with the car, it looks very clean. I would have a hell of time not getting a ticket around here with a tinted windshield. Good luck! emoji

10% is one shade lighter than limo. 10% is way too dark for the windshield. Remember, the lower the numer of %, the darker. Limo is 5%.

well you can always hit up a doctor and tell him that the glare from your windshield give you headaches. After that you can go to the dmv and they will allow your windshield to be tinted. Ive got a buddy with a civic that has this done, the info is on his registration!
